Fari Passu Fromotions.
On the reintroduction of vernacular School in Rebruary, 1904, a scheme drawn up by the Board of Examiners, was ac- -proved by the Governing body. Your grades were recognised, a fifth being afterwards agreed to on the suggestion of the Head Master, as there were five Vernacular Masters, and it was possible to form classes to receive instruction in a course higher than the maximum required.
A Sub-Committee (kr. Irving, Hooorary Secretary,
and Dr. Ho Kai) was appointed by the Governing Body and their prooosais below as to admission and promotions were approved.
Admission to College. No boy in Chinese dress
to be admitted unless he could pass a preliminary test in Chinese equivalent to a three years' course of study.
Admission to upper School (Class III).
February, 1905, every boy must have passed in Grade 1 or fit for
Grade 2, if new boy.
rsbruary, 1906, every boy must have passed in Grade 2 or fit for
Grade 8, if new boy.
February, 1907, every boy must have passed in Grade 8 or fit for
Grade 4. if new boy.
February 1908, and efter, every boy must have passed in Grade 4 or
fit for Grade 4, if new boy.
It is therefore evident that pari-passu pro- -motion was viewed by the Sub-Committee as a thing of the remote
future, to be attained in 1908.
